		My discussion post for the day:

	<blockquote>

			It certainly makes you think about what success and failure really are.
			Usually, people don&apos;t appreciate what they&apos;ve got until it&apos;s gone.
			They take it for granted.
			After all, if you&apos;ve never known any worse, how can you know you&apos;re not at the lowest possible point already?
			I guess only by knowing failure can you truly know success, but also, only by knowing success can you truly know failure.

	<h2>Lori Spencer</h2>
	<p>
		You may or may not remember Lori Spencer from <a href="/y.st./source/y.st./source/pages/en/weblog/2018/02-February/05.xhtml#Lori">from the other day</a>.
		You probably don&apos;t, because that entry was redacted and won&apos;t be visible until the year 2023.
		Then again, the fact that you&apos;re reading this means that year has already come and you&apos;re going back through my history, so maybe they&apos;re fresh in your mind.
		Anyway, they came back through the drive-through today.
		I didn&apos;t recognise them, but they asked if I was Alex.
		They explained who they were, then apologised.
		They said their behaviour was not only uncalled for, but also out of character for them.
		I hope that&apos;s the truth, but either way, I don&apos;t think they&apos;ll be hassling me again, and they&apos;ve taught me an important lesson about my head manager.
		I know better how to deal with problem customers better: lie to them.
		If they won&apos;t leave the drive-through lane while waiting for their order, I&apos;ll tell them we <strong>*won&apos;t even throw their order into the oven*</strong> until they&apos;re gone.
		Is it true?
		That depends on what they order.
		It might already be in the oven, so it&apos;ll come out either way.
		But I no longer bring order tickets to the assembly line until customers leave, so if it&apos;s a special-made pizza, it won&apos;t even be a lie.

		Apparently, we had a very angry health inspector visit the store while I wasn&apos;t there.
		The aftermath has been awesome.
		So ... I can&apos;t go into details on all what they told us.
		Most of that&apos;s privileged information.
		However, we&apos;ve had a sink right in customer view in the front for as long as I&apos;ve been there.
		Because the state of the sink is clearly visible to customers (though they usually ignore the sink), talking about it is definitely fair game.
		A few months ago, the hot water knob broke.
		So what did management have done?
		Why, they had the cold water knob moved to the hot water stopper-thing, so we could use the hot water, but we were left without <strong>*cold*</strong> water.
		Seriously!?
		So I&apos;ve been burning my hands when I wash them, if the sink&apos;s been used in the past few minutes so the water&apos;s already warmed up.
		I&apos;ve had to run to the back room to wash my hands there, often times after first trying to wash them up front and burning them.
		Regardless of how I wash my hands, that&apos;s the only sink in the join that lets a bottle pass under the faucet.
		I&apos;ve been frequently stuck drinking hot water all day, while also working in a room with three flame-powered ovens.
		This just isn&apos;t right!
		I don&apos;t know what the health inspector&apos;s problem with that sink was.
		As far as I can tell, it&apos;s a huge annoyance for employees, but it&apos;s not a health hazard.
		However, they had a <strong>*big*</strong> problem with the sink and threatened to shut us down if we didn&apos;t have it fixed by Wednesday.
		Seriously!?
		Sweet!
		So the head manager brought someone in to fix it today.
		They could&apos;ve done that all along, but I guess they wanted to wait some more.
		Or maybe they thought it was just fine to leave us without cold water forever.
		I don&apos;t know.
		In any case, thank you health inspector, for making the head manager finally do their job, even if only in this small part of it.
	</p>

		On the register, I activated some sort of mystery feature
		I probably shouldn&apos;t specify even the few details that I have.
		Privileged information.
		However, I&apos;m not sure how I did it, and due to a mistake on my part, it got deactivated before I could confirm it did what I think it did.
		I tried to repeat the initial mistake that activated it, but to no avail.
		The register just responded as expected this time instead of doing anything special.
		It might&apos;ve been an odd timing-based bug though.
		We have a few of those confirmed in the system.
	</p>
	<p>
		The head manager changed my shift for tomorrow at the last minute.
		My understanding is someone fell ill, so I needed to fill the gap.
		In any case, I shouldn&apos;t even be working tomorrow.
		I haven&apos;t worked on Tuesday in ages, but this week, I had an evening shift scheduled.
		Now, I&apos;ve got a bizarre middle ground shift.
		I&apos;ll come in after morning crew&apos;s been there for a few hours, then leave a few hours before evening crew.
		This&apos;ll make my Tuesday errands incredibly inconvenient.
		I don&apos;t go to bed right when I get home; I can&apos;t sleep, so I study.
		I doubt the credit union or the clinic will be open after work, so I&apos;ve got to go before.
		I can&apos;t reschedule for another day, as Bi-Mart&apos;s weekly drawing won&apos;t wait for me.
		There won&apos;t be time for a full night&apos;s rest and my errands will be rushed.
